*Uncertain about this Joseph Dalby being son of Joseph born 1674. Circumstantial evidence suggests a decent likelihood however as this Joseph has brothers Benjamin and Upshur which could be named after his uncle and maternal grandmother's maiden name - more research needed but this connection has a rather high level of probability
